Wer früher stirbt ist länger tot
Oh God, this was funny and so lovely! I feel bad now that I forgot to blog about, but I am actually surprised by it – very pleasantly of course. I think that everything Bavarian (and everything Tyrolish – or Tyrolian? Whatever.) is really adorable and this film is no exception, heh. Just like “Death at a Funeral”, I find it difficult as always to write about a funny film, even though I could go on ranting about how enjoyable and bavarian it is, but oh I don’t know much about it, so where’s the point?
Of course the film had some ridiculous parts, but actually they made us laugh, so it was fine. The trip of the great-grandmother, hahaha. Or how Sebastian’s father and his teacher ‘fell’ for each other. Or how the radiomoderator tried to kill himself. XD
But I should maybe mention that Sebastian is a rather nice and well-portrayed protagonist, but even though he is so thoughtful, I find it impossible to qualify him as a “shota” (just like Czeslaw from Baccano and this one guy from Darker than Black). Maybe because he’s so insecure and basically behaves like a normal young boy? *g*
So yeah – yay for german films, I highly approve.
PS. Oh, about the title of the post: We noticed how we are only watching french of english films so far – and always watch them subtitles. We were even thinking about watching this film with subtitles but I’m glad that we decided against it in the end as it was understandable, even for me.
